We are very excited for this year’s expo, and not just because that theme is also central to Burkett and our 40 years among the leading distributors of restaurant equipment and supplies.

We are excited to hear the keynote speaker, Cleveland’s own Iron Chef Michael Symon.

We are excited to see old friends and make new ones as they visit our booth, No. 721, inside the Greater Columbus Convention Center, 400 North High Street, Columbus, OH 43215.

We are excited to watch the classic Pizza Pizzazz Competition and the all new Expo Burger Battle.

We are excited to be among the 4,000 in attendance discussing the latest trends and topics and the foodservice industry.

We are especially excited to talk to independent restaurant operators and regional chains, whether start-ups or longtime staples, hear their stories, and see what solutions we can offer moving forward.

From the local mom and pop shops, to food trucks, to major franchises, we’ve always thought of every customer as a partner in business. It was our philosophy from the day we first opened our doors and it still holds true today. We take pride in the products we sell, the service we provide, and contributing to the success of every type of business we serve.

2017 was a year of great strides and improvements for Burkett and we are ready to hit the ground running in 2018. That all starts on Jan. 28-29 in Columbus, Ohio. Expos are a time where both businesses and customers can break away from the day to day operations and really focus on themselves, their wants and needs, and get focused on meeting and exceeding goals and ambitions.

It’s that time of year again, and we couldn’t be more excited for this year’s Mid-America Restaurant Expo! Check out the full schedule of events here and check out video highlights from the 2017 Expo below.
